How to open TVS file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TVS file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install TeamViewer

If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file TVS.

Step 2. Create association of TeamViewer with TVS files

If, despite the installed application, the TVS file does not start in the TeamViewer application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the TVS file with the TeamViewer program.

Step 3. Update TeamViewer to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the TeamViewer program, it is possible that TeamViewer Video Session Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the TeamViewer website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TVS file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The TVS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TVS file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our TVS file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TVS files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TVS file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TVS files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting TeamViewer, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TVS files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move TVS to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TVS file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TVS file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
